WW-Nazis had a Browning Auto-5, which was pretty neat.
Held five rounds of 12-gauge.

I was thinking a gatling gun, but realistically, those weigh like 800-900 pounds, or more, so you probably wouldn't carry one (though doomguy IS insanely stronk).

When would you figure the mod should take place? That would be kind of important to make the theme consistent.

Maybe a small muzzle-loaded handcannon, like, .80 or .100 caliber or something, that you load with bunch of black powder (or a large paper-cartridge full of black powder) , and then load in a canister shot in it, it could be a percussion cap weapon, so the player puts a cap on the lock and cocks the hammer. Lots of bang, lots of noise, lots and LOTS of smoke, and lots of death.

No weapon like that existed (to my knowledge), but theoretically, the design could have been conceived sometime during the civil war (though reasonably not fielded, as it's fucking insane).

Basically, it would be like an enormous shotgun, could fire the big shot, which would break down into balls, which would slam forward, not stopping for anything, ripping through monsters.


An Auto-5 exists, cool enough, so that should be easy to implement, though we still need some kind of revolver, like a Single-Action Army or a cap-n-ball revolver.
